Arrived in the mail from Best Buy ThursdayI used $35 of gift certificates to buy 4 of the new general release of former Barfko-Swill only albums. Two more coming next month. Best Buy matched the $8.39 Amazon price plus free shipping! (about $9 each with sales tax)

Yeah it was Joe's Menage. I used some tracks of it to compile live material from around that era. The Chunga's Revenge track was a bit of a disappointment. He's never surpassed the original studio take.

I've been shopping for other items in Amazon and (though the free shipping has gone weird...I just added Zappa discs to make 25 dollars for free shipping) I poke around at the Zappa discs. Finally made a decision on Halloween 77. I've been listening to the Adrian Belew era with an 80 min disc I made off the soundtrack off Baby Snakes. I don't even have the software to do that anymore. But I like the band, unlike some of the bands with multiple keyboardists. So I went for the CD version here.

This is not really my favorite (for the songs featured or made in studio) era overall (basically I like the 73 74 75 bands with Duke, Underwood and Napoleon) there is so much material here, I can compile what I like.

So what did I like about NY, Titties and Beer and all that? Most played albums from that era: Läther.

This pretty much wraps up my Zappa shopping for 2 months now. I decided I needed some new ones as "presents" in December. And no more for all of 2019 unless I find the 4 disc MOFO.

Another ”hey I need free shipping” thing came up. I had the Ryko edition of Fillmore, so got the Zappa records one. It has one more track. This album, withecgroupie theme, had some really good live versions. And one of the few Return of the Hunchbacked Duke recordings, mistitled under A Little House..The original track 8 explains the two parts etc.http://globalia.net/donlope/fz/notes/Bu ... tml#Little
